It was one thing for CS Silk to do that, but wasn't anybody riding in the Manhattan paying attention to the Just a Game?

I've now noticed my horrendous LIRR grammar and syntax from my earlier post, and I do apologize.

It's Tricky

Looked like a winner the entire race.

Is they serious?

Motion said that the timing of those Arlington races is “a good fit” and that he and Barry Irwin, the president of the Team Valor International syndicate that owns Animal Kingdom, must decide whether to run him once or twice between now and the Breeders’ Cup.

What races are they referring to?

Arlington Million or the Secretariat is what they said.

Okay. I thought it was about those races, plus whatever one they would use pre-BC.

What does a 112 for Trap Shot mean Khan of Khans received a 95? You can take that fig and wipe your butt with it.. The fig is fine what it means about Trap Shot is debatable. Jason Blewit called him the best sprinter in training on Belmont in 30. I kind of think Smiling Tiger would eat his lunch at 6 or 7.

Khan of Khans got a 84 Freddy, which is right in line with how he has been running for awhile now.

Would love to know how you calculated that.

I think he used a classic Texas Instruments grade school calculator and multiplied 8008 times 1.

He might have added a fifth of Jack to the equation, too.

I think Trappe Shot will beat Smiling Tiger whenever they meet.

Seriously?

Yes. Trappe Shot, while obviously aided by the wet track like the rest of the winners, is a seriously good horse.

Trappe Shot is very good at what they're going to keep him doing. Smiling Tiger, while a game horse who always shows up, was better off in his stall yesterday. He will have a very difficult time beating Trappe Shot in a race like the Vanderbilt if he's shipped in for it.

Is this love for Smiling Tiger from your fascination with Twirling Candy?

Of course it is.
